OpenOffice 3.4.1 Crashes and won't open

dugsky · Post by **dugsky** » Mon Oct 01, 2012 4:47 pm

Last night I downloaded version 3.4.1. I am using Mountain Lion 10.8.2. When I try to open the OpenOffice it crashes.

Anybody else with this problem?

More information please.
Is there any error message?
Did you install AOO in your applications folder?
Did you have a previous version installed?

I also have the same problem. It worked successfully until I installed Mountain Lion. I have uninstalled OpenOffice and then then tried to reinstall both previous versions and 3.4.1. The only way to quit OO is to force close up.

Did you update from 10.7 or earlier? Or is this on a clean 10.8 install?
Have you tried repairing permissions?

10.8.1 came with my new mini last week, updated it to 10.8.2 and installed 3.4.1 fine. No installation issues as far as I am aware of. So, maybe there's some "left-over" byte somewhere.

I updated from 10.7 and I made a control of the hard disc before updating.

What error messages do you get?

Same problem here with OO 3.3.0 and 3.4.1 after upgrading to Mountain Lion. Help, please.

I have the same problem. I updated OpenOffice and it crashed ever time I tried to load it. I deleted and re-installed and had the same problem. Occasionally OO will open just fine, but then a dialogue box comes on the screen noting a former crash and asking if I want to resume the former Open Office window. However, that window does nothing, no matter which button I press. It also will not permit me to use the OpenOffice window that is behind it. My only option is to Force Quit OO.

I am very reliant on Open Office and have been for years. Please find a solutiion to this bug! Thanks

Dan
